Maxmillian stared at Grace Monroe from beside the door where he stood. "What do you mean? I have never hurt Amelia, and i would never hurt her", Maxmillian confessed. "Are you sure? Because that wasn't what Alexander told me?" Grace added."Alexander doesn't know anything about Amelia and I""But he knows enough to see that you starve her sexually. After all, she's human, isn't she? And you don't want your cute little human to turn into a monster, like you did to me", Grace yelled frustratingly."Whatever happened to you was entirely your fault" Maxmillian said."I didn't get myself pregnant. You were the one who couldn't control that thing down there....""You drugged me" Maxmillian yelled."So I'm guessing you are not strong enough then." She smirked "just as I thought."What have you come here to do?" Maxmillian asked. "I have given you enough, Grace. I need you and your son out of my life." "Our SON Maxmillian. Alexander belongs to us both", Grace added."Not anymore, you watch
"Go to the car and wait for me Amelia", Maxmillian commanded."I'm sorry" Amelia cried out."Just do as I have said" Maxmillian ordered.Just as Amelia left the roof, Maxmillian and Alexander got into a fierce battle, which made both of them bleed, until Grace came to separate them."What is wrong with you both?" Grace yelled. "Do you want to kill my son over a mere stranger?" "You both are strangers. You have come to ruin my life. The two of you should go back where you came from. You are not welcome here, Maxmillian yelled." "You have no right to tell us what to do, where to go and definitely not who to kiss, because I enjoyed my lips going into Amelia's", Alexander added.Maxmillian became more furious, he tried to hit Alexander again, but Grace stood immediately in front of her son. "Touch him one more time and you will feel my wrath", Grace Monroe warned.Her eyes were fierce and scary. She was able to control her emotions just like Maxmillian. "From my blood you both are m
"Really?" Amelia asked "Of course. I don't want to hide anything from you, Amelia," Maxmillian confessed."Okay. I'm listening." Amelia said softly, sitting at the edge of the bed, while patiently waiting for Maxmillian explanation.Maxmillian grabbed a chair that was situated in the corner of his room. He pulled the chair in front of Amelia. Stared at her for some minutes, and cleared his throat. All of this time he wasted, he was busy thinking of lies to come up with, to tell Amelia, since he wasn't ready to let Amelia know who he was. "I'm sorry I haven't been completely honest with you, Amelia. I know there are a lot of questions you wish to ask and dozens of answers you seek." Maxmillian started."Exactly. You haven't completely explained to me what's going on between you, Grace, and Alexander, and somehow I get mixed up in your drama. I feel I'm the center of all this trauma. One minute you are agreeing that they are your family , and the next minute, you are saying you don't
The evening was calm and quiet. At about 10 pm, Maxmillian and Amelia sat in the living room watching movies while stuffing food in their mouths. Suddenly, there was a sound of broken glass coming from the wine shelf. Maxmillian hurried to check what it was, only to find Alexander opening a bottle of wine and pouring himself a glass."Oops… My bad," Alexander said just the very moment he saw Maxmillian."What are you doing here?" Maxmillian asked, looking furious."Calm down, old man. Today is the third day. I didn't get feedback concerning my offer," Alexander stated."What useless offer? I can't let you stay here," Maxmillian added."If that's the case, then I can help you tell your woman what manner of beast you are," Alexander said."Who are you talking to baby?" Amelia asked, her voice echoing from the living room where she sat patiently waiting for Maxmillian to return to her.There was no reply. Maxmillian was dumbfounded. He didn't have the right words to explain to Amelia wha
Amelia was shocked. Still in the dining room making breakfast. She looked at Grace, wondering what Grace would want to talk to her about."Common Amelia, there's no need to be scared. My mother doesn't bite," Alexander said, smiling.Grace laughed hard at Alexander's statement."Of course, I won't bite her. At least not yet, and for the sake of my son," Grace added."I don't think I will have that chance to speak with you....""Oh, you will baby. You had better make that chance for our conversation to be held, even though it means you rescheduling, because if I don't get to speak with you today, hell will let loose. And we don't want that, do we?" Grace asked.Amelia stared at Maxmillian. Expecting him to say something. "Whatever conversation you want to have with her should be held in this house," Maxmillian knight ordered."Of course, Maxmillian. I wouldn't take your lovely woman to a place you wouldn't get to watch over her," Grace added.A few minutes later, they all began having
Maxmillian and Amelia decided to spend the rest of the day hidden in the room. They stay behind closed doors for hours, gossiping and having a good time. Amelia had her head on Maxmillian's chest, while they both lay on the bed. She told Maxmillian everything she discussed with Grace Monroe, including her response to her. "I'm proud of you. I'm proud you stood up to her. She would have taken advantage of your calmness." Maxmillian complimented "I didn't think you could pull it off, for some moments I was scared she would hurt you". He added"Hmm, although she sounded confident. Maybe it was because she has a child for you....""I don't consider him my child. He's a grown man, old enough to cater for himself and start his own family. I have no idea why he's back anyway," Maxmillian interrupted."I still don't understand why you won't touch me, Max," Amelia cried in a low tone. "Maybe if I have a child for you too, I can be more confident like Grace. I have no stand, nothing to fight h
Maxmillian left his room for Alexander's. His rage was predictable. "What were you doing in my room?"Maxmillian asked. Barging into Alexander's room. Alexander was standing by the window with his hands in his pockets. He turned slowly to Maxmillian. Seeing his father's angry look, he knew immediately not to throw back the rage Maxmillian came to him with. "I was expecting you, Maxmillian. What did you go to my mother's place to do?" Alexander asked."I went to warn her to stay away from Amelia. You heard what your mother told Amelia, didn't you?" Maxmillian asked. "That shouldn't repeat itself.""So what?" Alexander asked rhetorically, feeling less concerned."She warned her fellow woman to stay away from a man she loves. Is that a new thing? If Amelia loved you like she claimed she would fight my mum for your heart. But no, you keep telling Amelia to stay away from Grace because you and I know that Grace will win. Am I right?" Alexander concluded."Is that all you have to say?
Amelia took off immediately. She ran as fast as her legs could carry. As Maxmillian tried to follow her, Grace held his hands tightly."Where are you going?" she asked."What have you done?" Maxmillian replied rhetorically."Are you going to leave me here and go after that human?" Grace yelled. "That is my woman!!! She is mine. The earlier you begin to accept that, the better for all of us. Get your hands off me" Maxmillian commanded, his voice deep and slow. He tried as much as possible to be calm. Deep down, he knew if he didn't tell Amelia the whole truth, she was going to leave him finally."You have started a fight, Grace Monroe. I promise you it's going to be fair," Maxmillian warned. He left the restaurant immediately in search of Amelia. Amelia had gone very far away from Maxmillian. Tears rolled down her cheek uncontrollably, and she somehow found herself in the woods. Since she left the orphanage home for Maxmillian Knight's house, she hasn't been anywhere outside Maxmill
